    Where does Berwick sit in relation to Ankeny and Des Moines?

    Berwick lies south-east of Ankeny, about nine kilometers from the anchor point, and it sits between Ankeny and the south-eastern edge of the Des Moines metro. It is one of the closer communities to the anchor, and the run from Ankeny is short.

    The distance is for planning, and the service is the same. The crew brings the same readings equipment, the same drying equipment and the same log. A homeowner who calls can expect the same log, the same readings and the same written scope they would receive in the city.

    Which parts of a house are checked first here?

    The lowest room, the floor drain, the sump if there is one and the wall base are checked first in a home with a lower level. A window well or a walkout door on the low side is checked next, followed by the threshold of any door set low to the ground.

    In a home without a lower level, the crew checks the threshold, the crawl space vent and the wall at ground level. It also checks any room with a plumbing fixture, because a supply line can release water into a wall cavity there.

    How do readings guide the work?

    Readings are taken at the floor, the wall base, the framing and the subfloor, and each is written with its location and material. The readings show the wet zone, and the crew opens only where the moisture is inside a cavity.

    The first reading is the baseline. Each later visit is compared with it, so the homeowner can see the trend. A falling reading shows the drying is working; a flat one means something is still feeding moisture into the house. The first reading and the last reading sit side by side in the summary, so the change is easy to see at a glance.

    What does the homeowner decide and when?

    The first decisions concern safety and the source. After that, the homeowner decides with the crew which items to keep, clean or remove. The decisions are written into the scope and signed where the homeowner agrees.

    Decide early who will repair the source. A plumber repairs a supply line, and a roofer repairs an opening. The timing of those repairs sets when the walls and ceilings can be closed up. Keep a copy of the first photographs and the first readings, because they are the reference the later readings are compared against.

    FAQ

    Berwick FAQs

    Is Berwick covered?

    Yes. Berwick is in Polk County and is part of the service area. Calls are answered at any hour. Give your street address and ZIP 50032 so the crew can plan the visit.

    Do I need to stay out of the house while it dries?

    Not always. The crew will say which rooms must stay closed. The equipment is loud and warm, so plan for some disruption in the affected rooms.

    Why does my kitchen cabinet feel swollen after a dishwasher leak?

    Particleboard in a cabinet base swells when it stays wet, and it does not dry back to its original strength. The crew checks the base and usually recommends replacing it.

    Who pays for the readings and the log?

    The record is part of the work the crew performs. Whether the work is covered depends on the policy or on what you agree with the crew. Ask about the terms before the first visit.

    Is there anything I should not do during the drying?

    Do not close up a wall or ceiling that the crew has opened, do not run equipment hoses across the floor where people walk, and do not move the meters or the pins the crew has placed. Keep the log sheet where it can be read, and ask before changing any setting.
